How To Beat Procrastination

The first step in beating
procrastination is to admit to yourself how often you do it and assessing your methods of
doing it.

Not very difficult, really, when you become aware of the
tactics some of us use to hide from ourselves what we are doing.

The key in overcoming procrastination
and becoming more efficient is organization. Plan ahead.

Know what you want to accomplish today, this week, and in the long haul.

Make lists. The lists for today will probably be more
detailed than the longer-term lists.

That's OK.
Now look over the lists and rank the tasks in order of importance.

Make three or four groupings based on
importance.

Within each group, star the things you
least like to do.

Each day you will have a
"today" list to work on.
Tackle the tasks that are most important first.

If you have several "most
important" tasks on your list, take on the least liked
things in that grouping before you do the better liked ones.

When you have accomplished a task, check it
off.

You'll be surprised what a good feeling
you have when you check things off.

What a sense of accomplishment! It's an incentive to do the next task on the list.

When you have completed the tasks in the
first grouping, begin on the list of next importance.

Again do the starred items in that group first.
Keep on checking things off as you get them done.

Do you see what is happening? You get the most pressing, least liked tasks out of the way early in the day when
you are fresh and rested.

As the day goes on you will feel less and less
pressure.

You have reserved the less important tasks for the end of the day
when you will be more tired.

With this system you will have not only
increased your efficiency but also reduced some of the stress in your
day. Stress can get in the way of efficiency.

Your new efficiency will help you develop
your potential. It is, in fact, a part of living up to
your potential.

Another important part of efficiency is
in delegating work. If you are in a position where you have assistants or
designated people under your supervision, you need to learn to
delegate.

If you are not in such a position yet, you still need to know -
since you're working on developing

your potential you very likely will be
some day.

Delegating work is difficult for many
people. Some find it hard to ask others to do things for them - others
find it hard not to demand that others do tasks. Delegating is an art.

First, you need to realize that the
people under your supervision are PEOPLE.

Seldom, if ever, should you demand - that takes away self respect.

In order to achieve a happy and
co-operative crew, you need to help them build self-respect and
self-confidence.

A happy and
co-operative crew is an asset to you. Demands do not promote self-respect and
co-operation.

Oh, it's probably effective to demand
in the short run - but in the longrun you will be better off to gain
co-operation without demanding.

People who are asked to do a task, are
given explanations and clear instructions, and are praised for a job
well done will grow in self-respect.

They will also respect you as a good
supervisor. If you hesitate to ask for their assistance,
your crew will feel that you do not trust them or have faith in their
abilities.

This affects their self-respect and, as a reaction, will
affect their respect for you, as

well.

When you delegate work, don't delegate
just the "junk" tasks. Your
crew needs to be given some important tasks
to do as well as unimportant ones.

The important task gives them a sense
of the respect you have for them and the faith you have in their
abilities. It's a good idea to save some "junk" tasks for
yourself.

Perhaps the most respected and
effective boss is the one about whom the crew says,
"She never gives us anything to do that she wouldn't do
herself."

Why? Because, by her actions the boss issaying that, though her position is
above theirs, she is still just "plainpeople."

Delegation of tasks is important
because you can gain in effectiveness and get more done if you properly supervise
a crew.

Don't feel embarrassed or hesitant about delegating work.

If it helps you to shine, it helps your crew shine, too. A well-run, effective department is a credit
to the whole team.

With proper delegating, you can help your crew achieve their potential as well as achieving your
own.

All of us have untapped potential -
perhaps even areas of genius - that we have neglected to develop.

Whether your concept of success has to do
with business, love, friendship, sports, a
combination of these or something else, more fully developing your
potential will help you achieve your

goals.

If you can learn to assess your potential, set realistic goals, and go after those goals with
determination, organization, and purpose, you will use your potential more fully,
gain confidence and be a happier and more successful person.
